Brook is obviously the better player, a tremendous offensive force. Robyn is limited without any over the top skill but watching him closely one can begin to appreciate the intangibles that dont show up in the boxscore. Clears out space for KP and others to board, constantly setting screens on O and his weird assortment of junk shots is somewhat effective. Constantly communicating on D and a decent rim protector. Overpaid yes, underappreciated yes


btw, the camaraderie on this team appears to be great. Hope Fischer keeps Oquinn upbeat because he must be dissappointed in his lack of play

Our Lopez has been a good pickup, despite some folks disliking him.

Blue collar guy. Phil had a lot of big guys like him on his good Bulls teams, and in some way Lopez is a retro type player.

Good guy to have in the pits, and with him and KP in the middle it gives us the best interior 2 defensive players we've had in a long time.

EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

People keep saying RoLo is overpaid but IMO he is very much worth every cent! His presence is like a security blanket. We're never overmatched size wise. Teams may have us beat at the guard spots but we always have enough size and interior D to compete.

Also some may not be allowing for the fact that even RoLo needs time to adjust to this offense and his teammates. It's not automatic that he'd be completely comfortable. I think we're starting to see real comfort and chemistry develop with him as well as Afflalo now. RoLo should get better like anyone else. This is about this year and the next 4 years!

love this guy and loves what he brings to the team. How can you not want this guy in your locker room? I'll take him over his defenseless brother.

yeah the dumping of crap on his head was out of line. your bosom buddy holfresh in particular vehemently disliked him.

knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

sadly it is unintentional on his part.
